Copyright and Teachers
Responsibilities associated with copyright and fair use, both in and out of the education setting, rest with all of us. Creators of content deserve credit, remuneration, and any other rewards they seek for their ideas and effort. In recent years, content creators have raised the profile of copyright concerns, and gained ground in legal protection for their work. Teachers need to realize their unique role in modeling responsibility for copyright and fair use in their own classroom practice, in addition to teaching their students about copyright and holding students accountable for use of content created by others. Copyright and fair use issues are not going away, and the sooner the education community is able to adhere to copyright and fair use requirements, the better off everyone will be.
